Time to focus on Spurs and City. Only two games left of any importance atm

Happy we didn’t lose tbh. Would have lost that game a few weeks ago

No serious harm done, no intent and no excessive force. How can the ref look at that so few times and give a red? He was on a Mike dean power trip. Wanted the headlines for himself.

Despite the result there have been some real positives tonight

1. Tierney had his best game yet
2. Saka showed again what a talent he is but seemed to run out of steam.
3. We definitely now have competition for the keepers
4. Def improvements in defensive organisation

Lessons to be learnt.
1. Must take chances , we should have wrapped this up in the first half.
2. We need to find a better midfield play maker

Lacazette missed some great chances. Especially that header he should have buried, I knew the longer the game went on Leicester would get some sort of help to get them back in the game. They got a point due to us being wasteful.

Sickening getting done by var again. Not as bad as the farcical game against Palace at home (will never forget that game and the disgust I felt for the Premier league as a result) but still bad

Yeah well CL was always a massive ask, just want a positive end to the season now, be great to beat spurs then hopefully finish above them, and get an FA cup! But more about getting some consistent good performances now, need a good platform to build from next season

Saka is still so raw, but his end product is amazing, not just for a young guy, but as your normal PL winger as well. He wouldn't be getting a chance at City or Liverpool though.
Tienery starting to look a player now his fitness is back

It's a decent point considering the circumstances, but we had plenty of chances to have won this with ease and we didn't take advantage of our opportunities.

This result won't matter if we can beat Spurs on Sunday.

Yea it will cos we could have finished ahead of Leicester
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Dude, come on. We were never finishing ahead of Leicester.

One of the worst adverts

If we accelerated their freefall it wasn't impossible

We were never good enough for CL spot , we are where we deserve to be in the table , its been a transitional season for us. We need to finish this season with a clear idea of what our system is for next season and which players were keeping , buying , selling. Etc

Vardy proud of that draw they were handed

Games where player who should've be sent off/booked took points from us with a goal

Arsenal Chelsea - Jorginho
Brighton
Tonight

Added to the Palace game that's probably is in the top four

Financially, the biased refereeing today could have a big impact.

1) Although our chances of scraping into the CL were extremely remote this has all but ended that.

2) Finishing in a higher position, even 1 position higher means a larger payout from the Premier League pot for final league position.

So no game is meaningless, whether CL qualification is on the line or not.

For us to have finished ahead of them, we would realistically needed to win all our remaining games - it was never close to being likely.

🤔

Ashley Cole and Redknapp on the panel what a surprise it was a def red

Kick in the head is all good

Yes, deliberately studding players in the face is not dangerous play at all... Not even worth VAR looking at.

But giving a yellow to someone who only had eyes on the ball, had just come on and mistimed his challenge is a clear and obvious error...

Also, we seem to have had a lot of players sent off against Leicester in recent years. Would be useful if our players could remain on the pitch.
